  1. Biggest disappointment for me was the team didn't travel up on Monday evening! 4 or 5 hours on a coach isn't the best preparation for an evening crunch game where points were so crucial! They looked jaded to start with, but improved as the game went on. This game should have had cup final like preparations!

    On to Saturday!

    SR has changed our club top to bottom and of course bigger clubs may come calling....Aberdeen did...thank god 

    ManagerSR, Assistant Manager DO,  COO KL, General Manager LM, Groundsman TD,  Shop and Strips Guru AP, and the Troops of our 27% shareholders, along with the BOD and SMISA, and all the other Staff employed by the Club have STARTED to turn this Club around!

    Long May it continue.

    Remember these days, as they are special!  👋👋👋

    Okay, I am wrong.

    Please give a massive monetary bonus to all players especially those who think the Season is over and don't try a leg and also give less than 100% in the remaining matches.

    Who said anything about massive ?

  4. With the prize money difference between 8th and 5th being £375,000, is it time to offer the players a healthy win bonus for a win on Saturday against Accies to ensure 6th place, and a further one for finishing 5th (or better) at the end of the season?

    I know they are paid reasonably well, but with the small squad we have, and the effort they have had to put in during the recent packed schedule and injuries, I think it might give them a wee stimulus to keep going till the end of the season?

  5. Agree with the above regarding being professional athletes, should be able to play every day, etc. but what I was thinking in the opening post is that if you have to play 10 games in the five weeks rather than 5 or 6, then we are more likely to have more chance of injuries, yellow/ red cards and possible suspensions, so when we get to March we  could be in a weaker position than other teams. In an ideal scenario, if we could avoid any injuries, cards, suspensions, etc. and rotate the squad successfully then that would be great, but I don't think that is going to happen. We'll find out soon enough I suppose. COYS

  6. Starting with Livingston on Sunday, the team have 10 games in 35 days up to the end of February which is a pretty heavy scheduled to get through.

    24/01/2021     Livingston (H/Park)        Sunday

    27/01/2021     Dundee Utd (Away)       Wednesday

    30/01/2021     Celtic (Away)                    Saturday

    02/02/2021    Hibs (Home)                     Tuesday

    06/02/2021    Killie (Home)                    Saturday

    10/02/2021     Celtic (Home)                  Wednesday

    13/02/2021     Aberdeen (Away)            Saturday

    17/02/2021     Hamilton (Home)            Wednesday

    24/02/2021    Motherwell (Home)        Wednesday

    27/02/2021     Ross County (Home)      Saturday

    The upside is that there are only two games away at Dundee and Aberdeen, if you accept Hampden/Parkhead as  "nearly at home" fixtures.

    Will the squad cope with this well, allowing for injuries and possible suspensions, or will we be playing with untried youngsters in the team by the end of February?

    Also, will the pitch stand up to six home games in less than 4 weeks?

     

    Bizarrely, we only have 2 scheduled games for the whole 31 days of March!

    Scottish Football planning at it's best, once again!
